Sandstorm in Khartoum, Sudan

Khartoum, Sudan. Sat, 26 April 2008

Yes! I have just experienced sandstorm, right here. Well, memula masa tengah seronok chat dengan Luke dan Kodek, aku tanya la Luke pukul berapa tempat dia sekarang. Tetiba jadi kelam, gelap tempat aku ni. Aku ON kan la lampu2 yang ada. And then terdengar bunyi angin kuat, "Hari nak ujan kot ni". Aku ke beranda. Dari dalam aku dah tengok, keadaan berdebu, pasir, gelap tak nampak apa sangat.

Demi laporan terkini lagi sensasi aku gagahkan diri ke balcony ni hah (wpun aku joke joke ni, tapi dalam hati tuhan aje yg tahu sbb aku duk rumah sorang sorang, Matthias tak ada). Aku pantas keluar, terus aku rasa particles pasir terus menerobos masuk dalam hidung, mata. Ish, teruk benar rasanya. Aku nampak bebudak, macam berhenti main terus berlarian. Aku dah rasa something was not right masa tengahari - sebab pandangan aku tak nampak jauh, limited visibility.

Before this, org ada cakap ribut pasir kat Sudan. Last year someone told me about that. Perhaps, Tuhan nak bagi aku the true experience of being in Sudan, in a way bagus gak dpt experience ni. Lama gak ribut ni berlangsung. Aku tak tau la apa akan jadi post-ribut ni. Pokok tumbang ke, pasir masuk dalam rumah tu jangan cakap la. Tadi aku keluar sebentar aje tadi, ni hah baju dah bau pasir dah, tangan kesat dengan debu dll. Subhanallah...

hahahahahahahaha..yes indeed..I do believe it would be a thousands of readers will be flooded on this blog. By the way, it was a very good LIVE coverage though. You should work as a reporter for National Geographic, shouldn't you? They are looking for someone who has great attributes like you - very eager to discover something interesting outside your very comfortable life. ops. Hope you would be able to make a report about what is going on in Darfur after this.

Yes Anonymous, I wouldnt be where I am today if there wasnt much support from people like you - loyal readers! Anyway, it would tremendously help me if you could identify yourself when you comment on my blog. Other than that, thanks a lot for checking my site out from time to time, and I will try to update as much as I can. Adios.
